i spoke with the guy in charge of high performance upgrades at the honda dealership near me today and he says the o4 s2k is going to have 300hp and a new type of engine that honda has never used before? he said the engine is 1 piece? (heads and block all 1 piece)? and so far no decision on coupe or conv.....he also mentioned that the 04 will keep the name s2000 but will be a type r?

 

Sounds like someone had a vivid dream.

 

LOL

 

just passing on the info...dont shoot the messenger....but he did sound like he knew this to be fact.....

 

My brother's cousin's sister's mother's babysitter told me the '04 would have a V20, weigh 800 pounds, and do the 1/4 in 9 seconds, on 85 octane fuel. Not sure how reliable that is though....

 

heh

 

We're screwed. Where the hell will we find 85 octane? Those bastards at Honda always have to throw in a catch.

 

I heard Ford was going to make it next year. They are going to offer it as the new Mustang. of course they are going to add 4 more cylanders for a total of 27 more HP. They are going to replace the suspension with beer cans and springs from left over ball-point pens, and it will cost $40,000. At least it will be offered in automatic with traction control included.

 

They ALL do!
Shoot "the guy in charge of high performance upgrades at the honda dealership near you". I think he's been reading that S2000R story a bit too much and actually took it seriously.

Besides, what kind of dufus Runpelstiltskin fantasy would have a ONE PIECE BLOCK AND HEAD assembly anyways? Honda has designed some of the world's most exotic engine concepts and this one is just too fantasmagorical to even imagine.

 

tommorow i drive to the dealership and give him a bitch slap....
